>The car is probably drawing the max 1500-2000W it can from the plug They don't draw from the plug like that; their onboard electronics is configurable to slow charge, and thus the incandescent bulb or two analogy. It's actually not misleading at all, after 7+ years of doing so, and paying electricity bills for such. The technique, to your point, works well when charging overnight when rates are low and the time to charge need not be a short time span, which therefore means the average daily distance isn't outlandish.
